About Lydia
Lydia Fabbroni is an LCSW - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Mexico with 20 years of experience. She has worked in inpatient psychiatry and as an emergency room clinician, and she helps people with depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting problems, mood disorders including bipolar presentation, and trauma histories.
She uses straightforward, collaborative sessions that balance practical skills and personal reflection. Conversations focus on validation and clear steps for change. Sessions aim to name the patterns that cause stress and to try concrete ways of responding differently.
Lydia draws on several approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She combines skills training, values clarification, and problem-solving to address emotion regulation, panic, and impulsivity.
In work with grief, relationship strain, caregiver stress, blended family issues, and communication challenges, Lydia emphasizes behavioral strategies and short exercises people can use between sessions. She also supports people dealing with midlife questions, life purpose, and career stress by setting small, manageable goals.
Her background in acute settings informs a practical stance in outpatient work. Sessions tend to be interactive and focused on manageable change rather than long lectures. To get started, follow the site's process to view online therapy options and schedule an initial session.
How Lydia uses CBT, ACT and DBT online
Lydia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. CBT breaks problems into smaller pieces so someone can try small changes and see what helps with anxiety or mood shifts.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to clarify personal values and to build committed actions that align with those values. That can help when life changes or loss make direction feel unclear. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies emotion regulation and interpersonal skills that are useful for strong mood swings, panic, or difficulty with impulsivity.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lydia will collaborate on a plan based on a person's goals, current struggles, and their preferences for skills practice or talk work. She adjusts methods as progress and needs become clearer.
